Visa Free Travel in Future for Ukraine
« on: September 10, 2008, 03:57:12 AM »
There has been talk recently of potential visa free travel for Ukrainians starting in 2 years with the EU.  How do the guys and ladies from this board feel about this.  Would not be too unrealistic as Poland and Czech Republic have not caused problems with easier travel restrictions. 

Personally I think it would be great but very bad for the marriage agencies in Ukraine and maybe ladies in Russia.

Dating agencies would open up in Paris, London, etc with Ukraine girls. A lot easier for men from USA to visit these cities than to go to Kiev.  Europe men may not have to travel at all. Flight time is direct for most big cities in Europe with most cities in USA.  Saves probably 15 - 20 hours roundtrip (including airport sitting time).   

Europe men have it easy with travel to Ukraine.  I work in Brussels a lot and easy for me to fly Friday night after work and fly back Monday morning.  Only about $400 roundtrip which is nothing when booked last minute.

Bad for ladies for Russia who cannot travel.  I bet a lot of guys will focus more on Ukraine ladies if they can travel easily in Europe.

The ability to travel is not depending on visa.  ;)

Poland and Chech Republic are part of the EU, which is a difference with not having to apply for visa.
While Ukainian citizen might not need to apply for visa when visiting, that does not mean they have the right to work or move their residence. It just means that it will be easier to meet outside Ukraine.
This might actually boost the marriage agencies, as pro-daters could meet in Paris without trouble of visa.  :-\

However you are mixing the need of travel visa with the rights of EU citizenship here.
No it is not a dog. Its really how I look.  ;)
